publicly pais on public reaction friday a businessmen phoned lo express hit tali action and asked in lo take e look at the four cornert where e policeman in ihe middle of the road wa energetically keeping traffic lowing evenly in ell dir ections and keeping an eye out or pedestrians et the tame time it wai a pleasure to see tint dangerous spot pro tecled by someone bearing the stamp of law and or der end if the new police forcelakes as keen an inter est in all phases o law enforcement and public safe ty then we can be happy to have them with us get in the swim now thaj a iwimming pool in georgetown i loo mng e definite reality there come the queiiion of money the uom club ha been parking activity with generous aisnti from uch group a the boy stout auxiliary and the firemen tender for the comtrutlion have been let there is some 16500 in the kitty for a staii but this is a long jong way from the manv thousands required to see the job completed successful completion of the swimming pool will depend on cash donations from organizations and in dividuals over a lengthy period of time we understand that it isthe lions club plan to proceed as far as pos sible with available funds then stop if necessary unt i more money is available to continue the club could pity the reporter no one likes spice wetter than a newspaper re porter and a recent council meeting should have been a highlight to this reporter instead if we might paraphrase it was a stinker council dealt at some length with the question of waste disposal at the alliance milli the matter had been discussed before and this time a delegation of ratepayers from that area requested some definite ac tion an hour anda half of council s time was spent on this and we secured tome particularly good quotes which we debated using for some timebefore we did were still not sure if we did the right thing in mak ing the story as lengthy as it turned out council reporting is one of the most interesting jobs we have and one of the trickiest it may seem simple to tit on the sidelines every monday nght jot a few notes and ram them off on the typewriter the next day it is much more than that we look on council re porting as a definite duty lo the people in georgetown for it is the most important business there is in town and it is the only meant most people have of finding out what elected representatives are deciding as pub- the o wn phoned elto wanted ut to past on to the public that it it not a onetidd fob and that w cn also help too many peopto have got in the habit of ambling across the itrat without any re gard for pedestrian safety rules at the four cornert there ere now clearly marked alleyways for those on foot and people can cooperate by following these markings put there for their sefety cer driven too must keep a lookout for signals given by the officer s in charge end obey them this new system if it is maintained should end most of the traffic arm which occur at rush hours as well as protecting both motorists and then walking from accident ftfinkfc hokys wms tejnwwic oar wintrier nentta pleat will be on holiday tor the motstfa of august nexy sunday will beta charge of the wjts and

such a larqe expenditure without et least a percentage of the money already at hand this is tlie time lor those nundredi of people who have been talking about our lack of swimming fa cilities to come forward no one expects to see any one deprive themselves to donate but everyone should expect a donation small or largo from each individual in town and district there are at least 6 000 people in the oreo wiio would be served by the swimming pool that means a per cap ta donation of perhaps 10 ottldll sdlvoltc for each man woman or child in the district a large sum and every dollar you can spare will be needed to pul the campaign over the top pot pourri esquesing council got the ump on our editorial recently the herald suggested warning signs at the dangerous swimming area near ihe glen bridge and we learned efter writing that the signs had already been erected it it to be hoped that they will help evoid eny future tragedies an inaccuracy in e newt story about en accident last week tald little jeffrey itley wet treated fore heed cut in peel memorial hot pital and released efter treatment jeffrey wat taken to guelph general hospital and stayed overnight after five stitches were needed to close the wound sev eral weeks ago the herald printed a tales folder for wigo television it wat an 8 page leaflet celled the wigo herald tome in yellow a no tome in pink and wet distributed door to door a dozen copies of this ere needed end unfortunately none were kept by eith er the herald or the store if anyone hat one around lie policy tl is a place where accuracy is extremely import ant and particularly when one quotes a man verbatim the danger in quoting is that a councillor may say something which in the heat of discussion sounds logical at tho time yet when put in print after the smoke has cleared tends to make him look biased ridiculous or uninformed this meeting was one of those where it was hard to decide what to do we tried to give the story obectively and in the course of so doing quoted seevral councillors who expressed opinions our quotes were accurate but even an accurate quote can some times infer meaning that is not there we do not for a minute think that any member of council would like to see one of our important indus tries leave town it s like that radio program of a few years back where the punch line always came in you say it but you don t mean it much as we like quotes we hope that councillors will weigh their words a little more carefully in fut ure make it spicy yes but a little milder than pep per the house we would be much obliged if they would let the office know everyone it talking ebout the weather thit summer so often people have com plained about not having any summer that it teems ingratitude to talk about the heat thit year but we all do it one person in town it enjoying it doris armstrong home for e month t holidayt from her nur- ting potition in baltimore tayt the tummert there are worte hot and humid and even
